Refund Procedure
General rules
If you are a student who:
- has submitted a withdrawl from studies and a reimbursement request for the first installment-advance (We invite you to read carefully the regulations published on the website by the Admissions Office regarding requirements, methods and deadlines).
Please note: where tuition and fees are wholly or partially paid by Federal Aid (US students Direct Loans), the refunds of US Direct Loans will be calculated according to Return to Title IV (R2T4) regulations.
- was assigned a merit based award (100% full tuition waiver) or a broad support which entails the reimbursement of academic tuition already paid;
- has permanently left the room assigned and asked for the refund of housing deposit;
in order to be able to make the bank transfer, you must indicate a bank account. We remind you that the student must be the holder.
The Fees, Funding and Housing office will refund the advance of first installment in favor of students who have assigned a benefit ONLY after it has verified that the student is in the academic year 2024-2025 regularly enrolled in the first year or regularly enrolled in the following year. For this reason, students who in the academic year 2024-2025 will be "enrolled with reserve" (or have an enrollment subject to reserve) will not be able to receive a refund of the advance of first installment, paid for the academic year 2024-2025 until the dissolution of the reserve itself.
The request has to be submitted along with the withdrawal request and refund can only be made after the beginning of the a.y. 2024-25 (We invite you to read the regulations published on the website by the Admissions Office regarding the requirements, methods and deadlines).
The refund will be processed between september and october 2024.
We also remind you that you must meet all the conditions forseen by Admission Office (therefore we invite you to verify all the requirements pubblished on the website).
The refund of the first installment-advance will be completed by the end of December 2024 and it will be credited on the bank account in your name that you have indicated on Punto Blu [Home > Personal data > Data Bank Account (Refunds)].
The refund will cover the entire amount of the advance payment — first installment paid, including the regional tax.
Please insert the bank account details on Punto Blu by 30/09/2024.
A security deposit of € 500.00 is required from students who accept the housing assignment to guarantee the fulfillment of all commitments made with the acceptance itself.
Payment of the security deposit must be made by credit card through StoreUB, following the instructions available within the housing application at the time of the reservation.
Please note that students who confirm for A.Y. 2024-2025 the accommodation occupied for A.Y. 2023-2024 will not have to repeat the payment of the previously paid security deposit.
The security deposit will be returned to the student, without interest, and thereafter at the time the student finally vacates their assigned place at the end of the A.Y. 2024-2025, but no later than January 2026. This refund timeline will apply to all housing assignments related to the standard assignment period (end of August 2024 — end of June 2025), including annual open reservations.
The deposit will be refunded under condition that the student has completed all the due housing payments and that he/she has no debts towards Bocconi University or the residence management. In addition, in case the student will not take in charge the possible restoration costs for damages made to the structures of the residence or for recovery of sanitary and general conditions of the room, the housing deposit will also be used for covering the related expenses.
When foreseen, the housing deposit refund will be made on a bank account in the student’s name that he/she will need to register on Punto Blu >Home > Personal data > Data Bank Account (Refunds).
The security deposit will NOT be refunded and will be kept as a penalty deposit in case of withdrawal from the housing assignment.
The security deposit will NOT be refunded in cases of housing renunciation not substantiated by the specific academic reasons provided for the acceptance of the request for withdrawal. More details on this page of the website
